I'm thrilled to have been a small part of an amazing team to work on uncovering how plants regulate lateral root angles using auxin, PIN auxin transporters, and phosphorylation status. #auxin #phosphorylation #cellbiology #gravitropism https://www.nature.com/articles/s41477-023-01478-x

The first of the two #preprints that Gwendolyn Kirschner
and I discuss in a @preLights article (https://prelights.biologists.com/highlights/cell-polarity-linked-to-gravity-sensing-is-generated-by-protein-translocation-from-statoliths-to-the-plasma-membrane-amyloplast-sedimentation-repolarizes-lazys-to-achieve-gravity-sensing-in-plants/) is now published in @ScienceMagazine:

LAZY hitchhikers on statoliths – The missing link between #amyloplast movement and #auxin redistribution in root #gravitropism?
An insightful (and really entertaining) #preLight post from Gwen Kirschner & Marc Somssich covering two recent #preprints.
